What exactly is transformational coaching, and how is it different from regular coaching?
Transformational coaching with Angela Hardy goes beyond surface-level improvements. While typical coaching focuses on strategies and goal setting, transformational coaching aims for a fundamental shift in your mindset and how you experience life. It’s about identifying and reprogramming unconscious beliefs and patterns that keep you stuck, anxious, or unhappy, leading to genuine and lasting change, not just incremental improvement. It’s strategic optimization of yourself.
How does personal transformation or self esteem coaching work to change my life?
All of the work that we do together is about shifting the way that your brain works. Your brain is made up a network of nerves talking to each other – you can think of it as a biological computer hard drive, with your life experiences to date being the programs you have loaded onto the hard drive. It is though these programs that you filter every current experience, and from comes then all your pre-programmed thoughts, emotions and behaviors. As a personal transformation and self esteem coach, I know exactly what it takes to access and change your programs. New programs on your biological hard drive mean new thoughts, feelings and behaviours result. How exactly – well, we will make use of tried, measured and tested techniques from Neuro-science, phsyconuroimmunology, kinesiology, Science of learning, Neuro-limguistic programming, and techniques from the great personal transformation experts of our time. Do they work? yes!, will they work for you? Absolutely!
What kind of problems can Angela help with?
Angela specializes in helping individuals who feel anxious, stressed, stuck, or are experiencing self-sabotage. She addresses e limiting beliefs that create anxiety, depression, self-doubt, and a lack of self-worth or self-love, or sabotage your ability to succeed in your work or relationships. Her goal is to help clients rewire their minds so that they feel good inside, love their lives, and succeed without the internal struggle.
I am concerned that I will fail? Can you really help me?
Yes, and, in fact, it is pretty easy to do. As long as you are willing to open to a new possibility, and look in a new direction, change is easy, rather fun, and it is immediate. It doesn’t require work or practice, you don’t need to become better or more.
I know that it feels risky and uncomfortable to abandon old beliefs that we think have kept us safe, and to embrace new ways of thinking, feeling and behaving, I also know, that as soon as you can see how these old patterns have created your experience of “suffering” emotionally, you will no longer have any need or desire for them, and your life will change instantly. In fact, most of my clients experience changes in their life experience from the very first session together.
If you are afraid that you won’t be able to do it, you should know that you are not alone, many of my clients start out with that fear, they have come to me exhausted from trying and trying to heal their lives, and afraid that they will never succeed, because they have spent years trying to heal the symptoms (lack of self worth, self love, a feeling of not being enough, stress behaviors that trash their lives) and found that, actually, change is simple, as long as you know where to look.
Let me give you an example: if you came to me with a sore hand, and told me that no amount of icing and anti-inflammatories have helped, and that this has been going on for years, and you have tried everything, and you are exhausted by all the trying to not have a sore hand, but nothing you do takes the pain away. You may, understandably, be afraid that there is no help to be had.
If I told you to stop slamming your hand in the door, and that I noticed that you did that every 5 min, and you understood the reason your hand is sore, you would stop immediately and without difficulty. You would not have to practice or form a new habit, you would just stop! And the pain would go away.
It is all about working from the cause, instead of the symptom. When we work from understanding and shifting the cause of a symptom like “a lack of self love” there is no solution required, it changes instantly and easily.
How long will it take and how does it work?
,eetongWe would start with a 3-hour intensive training, where you will learn all about how your mind works to create your experience. This 3 hours is the basis for everything that follows, and it will change your perception of how your life, your feelings, and your image of yourself works right away.
Thereafter we meet once a week for an hour to 1.5 hrs for the next 12 weeks and work on specific belief systems, sabotage programs, and occasionally if necessary, conditioning moments in your past. That will allow you to understand your experiences quite differently from how you understand them now, and as a result, generate a completely different view of yourself and your experience in the world.
Most of my clients do this 15-session course with me and find that is all they need to be well on the path to loving themselves unconditionally, and they are armed with what they need to continue the journey for themselves, having said that, there is an enormous value in staying in the conversation regularly, and having a touch point to keep you motivated, learning and on the right track, so to that end, you are invited to continue in a master’s program meeting with me anything from every 2 weeks to once a month to help you to keep you deepening your experience.
How does Angela Hardy's coaching process work? What techniques does she use?
Angela uses a combination of unique tools to identify and reprogram hidden patterns that contribute to negative emotions and self-sabotaging behaviours. She uses a unique blend of tools, some of which have never been used before in the coaching arena. The emphasis is on quickly and permanently reprogramming your “internal operating system” for greater self-mastery. The process includes identifying where you are struggling, understanding why previous solutions haven’t worked, and reprogrammning a new path forward.
